Great Mobo!

BIOS was flashed and supported the 5600X which was one less thing to deal with.

Had everything I needed to get going straight away, with plenty of space to expand on my build at a later date.

What a Beauty

This board looks so good in my build, and performs like a dream! Was basically plug-and-play to install, didn't need a BIOS update for my Ryzen 5 5600x (though it's certainly nice to have a quick flash button!), and has plenty of fan support.
One thing I noted was that it was difficult to seat the I/O into its shield, but that's probably my fault.
Overall, I definitely recommend this motherboard :)
